There is just one week remaining until the sign-up deadline for the cookie swap and things are looking pretty great! I beat my goal of 50 participants with 55 to date! Here’s the break down:
- 37 USA participants with no restrictions
- 3 USA participants, gluten-free
- 7 Netherlands participants
- 3 Germany participants
- 2 Australia participants
- 1 Canada participant
- 1 Belgium participant
- 1 South Africa participant
I need a minimum of five in each group to include them so we still need 2 gluten-free US participants, 2 from Germany, 3 from Australia, and 4 from Canada, Belgium, and South Africa. If you know of someone in any of these groups/countries that might like to participate, please tell them about the swap!
Spread the word!
I don’t want to leave anyone out, so please spread the word as far and wide as you can. Using this link, you can pin the Cookie Swap logo on Pinterest, link to the swap on Facebook, and tweet it on Twitter. If you have a blog, I would be so grateful if you could mention the swap in one of your regular posts. Please help me get enough people in every group so no one is left out!
Also, if you haven’t signed up and would like to, click here and you will be taken directly to the sign-up form, which includes the dates & information you will need.
To close, I thought I’d share my latest cookie finds from Pinterest.
Pecan Pie Cookies…I’m in trouble. Pecan Pie is my favorite. Cookies are my favorite. I would attack these like a crazy spider monkey.

These are called “Caramel Apple Cookies” but the only thing close to caramel that’s in them is toffee bits (which actually sounds better than caramel to me right now)…so I think I’d use my caramel bits in them instead…or just call them “Toffee Apple Cookies.” But that doesn’t sound as cool.

Some cookies I could just stare at all day. Like these beautiful Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Cookies.

Or these Pretzel Cookies with Chocolate and Peanut Butter. I think I want these most right now. I love salty and sweet combos!

Why has it been three years since I’ve made Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies?! Oh yeah, because I attacked the last batch like a crazy spider monkey and my underwear went up a size that I never lost. But they are so. pretty. Can’t you just taste them?
